Go! Even With the Government
In the rank and file of the army na
subject is more freauently commented
upon than General Otis' extreme con
scientiousness in matters of petty detail,
.ays the Chicago Tribune. During an
advance on the north line recently one
company had to lie down at the side of
the road for shelter from the well-direct
ed volleys of the insurgents. One of the
privates had dropped his haversack in
the m iridie of the road away back, and,
after the company had laid down, he
cal ni! v stood up and walked down the
road toward thc lost haversack. He
made a fine target for the insurgents and
the bullets rattled around him pretty
Uvelv.
"Here, come back here, O'Malley,"
yelled the Lieutenant of the company
"You'll be killed."
'.Well." replied O Malley over his
shoulder. "I might jest as well be killed
as have General Otis a runnin' me up
hill and down dale and comm' over tc
me house ?very mornin' and a savin',
'O'Malley, why don't you pay the Gov
ernment for that haversack?'"
Then he calmly walked on and got
the lest piece of property and. as he
came back and sat down Just in time to
escape ? volley of Mausers, he threw
the haversack on the ground and said: j
"And when he does come to-morrow
mornin' to me house FD say. 'Otis, me
little man you're dead wrong. I never
lost no haveysack. There's your bloody
old potato bag. Take it to the Govern
ment with me complimente.

amount o? flour, can be shipped from
Minneapolis to almost any point in
Western Europe for about 20 cents.

STATE'S FINANCES.
The Comptroller General Makes His An
nual Report
j The long expected, but necessarily
! delayed annual report of the comptrol
ler general, upon which financial legis
lation has been based, has been issued.
The report presente a cash balance
showing the amount actually available
! for expenses of the State government
j for 1900 to be $129,574.96. The visible
j collectable revenues are: Uncollected
j taxes for 1899, $625,000; insurance li
cense fees; $12,000; additional licenses,
! $13,000; fees secretary of state's office,
I $5,000, making a total of $784.574.96.
The estimated expenses of the State
. government for 1900 are put down at
$906,518.90, leaving $121,943.94 which
! must be paid from the taxes of 1900.
In regard to two matters of general
interest the report says:
On the death of Mr. F. A. Free,
county treasurer, and the appointment
of his successor. Mr. E. D. Free, it was
discovered that the cash in bank to the
credit of Mr. F. A. Free was $8,151,81
less than the amount should have been
in hand according to the settlement
made at that time.
This shortage was a surprise to all
concerned. At the time of settlement
of taxes for 1897, in October, 1898, Mr.
A. F. Free produced the certificate of
the cashier of the Bank of Barnwell,
that he had sufficient funds deposited
in bank, with a small amount of cash I
in hand to cover the balance shown to ?
be due by him.
If Mr. Free was short at that time I
there was nothing in the records to in- j
dicate it. Had this department the ;
services of an expert auditing clerk, j
who could make a thorough examina- '
tion in each instance, and at any time j
during the year, mistakes and short- j
ages, such as above mentioned would, j
in my judgment, be avoided.
I am impressed that it would be the I
part of economy for your body to pro
vide for an auditing clerk, charged j
with this special work, and who, in ad- ;
dition, could keep the insurance and I
[ phosphate records in this office. My ?
observation is that shortages and ir
regularirites occur for the most parti
:. by reason of the fact that untried and
! inexperienced mc-^gfrr?^?*'m^j?e~ .'
lected to triko <?e of the ai\dkorV
and treasure,^s anf] undertake j
- this important j? WUh an inspector
i or audltl*g ?$*WZo witness the trans-!
I fer and j&Tjement between outgoing j
.^V?&iming officials as to their duties ;
a\*rthe manner of keeping the ac
counts and records of their office. I am j
sure would prevent many errors and !
apparent shortages. j
DISPENSARY SCHOOL FUND.
An examination of tnis report: shows ?
che disbursement of the dispensary1
profits.
On the 18th day of April, 1899. war-!
rants amounting to $67,204.35 were is- j
sued to the county treasurers of 27
counties. This was on account of de- ?
ficiency, as provided in the State con-,
stitution of 1895, and joint resolution j
passed, at session 1898. I
In attempting to comply with the act
No. 85, passed at session 1899, I ex- !
perienced difficulty in securing inform
ation on which to make the deficiency j
apportionment. This act provides that j
each school district in the State, where j
the sum realized from the 3-mill school
and poll taxes is not sufficient to make j
$75 for each school in the district, the i
comptroller general shall make up i
such deficiency from the dispensary j
profits. Under this head, warrants
amounting in the aggregate to $19,- j
338.03 were sent to the treasurers of 30 j
counties. For the support of summer
schools $5,000 was paid to the State ?
superintendent of education.
The remainder. $43.457.63. was ;-ent ;
to all the counties in the State pro :
rata, according to students enrolled in [
the public schools.
The $130.000 expended as above, if
paid to each county in proportion to j
pupils enrolled in the free schools,
would give 47 1-7 cents for each pupil. |
If this show of force is continued,
you should limit the number of schools j
in a given section to the school popu
lation, say-one school for each 45 or 50
children.

Blotchy Humors
Instantly Relieved
and Speedily Cured by
? rj . The Itching and burning I suffered in my feet and limbs for three years
were terrible. At night they were worse and would keep me awake a
feater part of the night. I consulted doctor after doctor, asl was travel
ling on the road most of my time, also one of our city doctors. None of the
doctors knew what the trouble was. I got a lot of the different samples of
the mediciues I had been using. I found them of so many different kinds
that I concluded I would have to go to a Cincinnati hospital before I would
get relief. I had frequently been urged to try C?TIC?BA REMEDIES,
but I had no faith in them. My wife finally prevailed upon me to try them.
Pres*to! What a change! I am now cured, and it is a permanent cure. I
feel like kicking some doctor or myself for suffering three years when I
could have used CUTICUKA remedies. H. JENKINS, Middleboro, Ky.
